Fires of the spirit
Burning prompt to brash action
Caution flung aside

Courage is not consciously being brave
Courage is activating screaming necessity
Courage is burning trivial irrelevance

Distant scenic worlds
A better place for the soul
Are they so remote?

Courage is stepping into the dream
Courage is living the dream and making it a reality

I love a sunburnt country / A land of sweeping plains / Of ragged mountain ranges / Of droughts and flooding rains / I love her far horizons / I love her jewel-sea / Her beauty and her terror / The wide brown land for me / ~ Dorothea Mackellar (1885-1968)

Wise words!
Beautifully done, Gemma. I think courage is an awesome potential.
Yes it does take special kind of courage to make dreams a reality-that's where I'm at right now.
Thank You.
So much wisom here! I like the line about not conscioussly being brave. I just watched the war movie, "Flags of Our Fathers" for the first time recently, and have had thoughts of the meaning courage in my head.
certainly it takes courage to make dreams come true, it also takes courage to know when to let go of a dream and face reality. I like your poems!
as someone wise has said, 'courage is feeling the fear, and doing it anyway'. Thanks for the burning-ness of this post, Gemma--
Love your bursting heart!

Fires of the spirit- I love that! I agree with your ideas of courage.
i very much like the link in your words between "burning trivial irrelevance" & "living the dream & making it a reality"...
The fire of courage; this is SO true. It becomes an element of its own. I really connected with your words in this piece. Thank you.
Wise and vivid...
Wisdom!
foundations of wonder
I enjoyed your SS but this hit close to home. Beautiful job!
